Answer

Transmission of Chikungunya

Chikungunya is a viral disease that is primarily transmitted to humans through the bites of infected Aedes mosquitoes. Aedes mosquitoes are the same mosquitoes that transmit dengue and Zika viruses.

Transmission cycle:

1. Infected person: When a person is infected with the chikungunya virus, the virus circulates in the bloodstream.

2. Mosquito bite: An Aedes mosquito bites an infected person and ingests the virus along with the blood meal.

3. Virus multiplication: The virus multiplies in the mosquito's gut and then spreads to its salivary glands over several days.

4. Infected mosquito: The mosquito becomes infectious and can transmit the virus to other people it bites.

5. Human infection: When an infected mosquito bites a person, the virus is transmitted to the person's bloodstream.

6. Symptoms: Within 3-7 days after being bitten by an infected mosquito, the person develops symptoms such as fever, joint pain, and rash.

Prevention:

- Wearing protective clothing such as long sleeves and pants
- Using mosquito repellents containing DEET, picaridin, or oil of lemon eucalyptus
- Removing standing water from around the home where mosquitoes breed
- Installing screens on doors and windows to prevent mosquitoes from entering
- Using bed nets to prevent mosquito bites while sleeping.

Treatment:

There is no specific treatment for chikungunya. Treatment focuses on relieving symptoms such as fever and joint pain. Rest, fluids, and over-the-counter pain relievers such as acetaminophen can help manage symptoms.

Answer

Yes.  Chikungunya is a viral disease that is spread by mosquitoes. Two important vectors are Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus, which also transmit dengue virus. These species bite during daylight hours with peak activity in the early morning and late afternoon. Both are found biting outdoors but Aedes aegypti will also readily bite indoors. There is no direct person-to-person transmission.
